India vs Australia 3rd Test Day 2 Live Score: By lunch on the second day of the third Test, India had Australia down to 104 for 3. However, Mohammed Siraj had to leave the field due to a left leg problem after bowling two balls in his 11th over. Earlier, Jasprit Bumrah gave India the upper hand by dismissing the Australian openers early on the second day. Left-hander Usman Khawaja departed for 21 while Nathan McSweeney departed for 9. Nitish Kumar Reddy picked up the crucial wicket of Marnus Labuschagne for 12.

Meanwhile, the much-awaited face-off between India vs Australia at the Gabba in the Border-Gavaskar Trophy began on a damp note, with only 80 balls bowled on the morning of the Brisbane Test before regular rain halted play. This is not the start that either team would want, as they know that this match could determine the outcome of the series as well as the entire World Test Championship.

Still, there will be optimism in both camps, as they know that cricket is moving fast in this series and an exciting game of cricket can be seen even in a short time.
